As mentioned here [1], my proposal is a bad idea. GPL license is transitive.

Since any change you might do upstream to fix this situation will be too late 
or too intrusive to be accepted for next Debian release (which is currently in 
deep freeze), I have no choice but to remove SSL support from Pan in Debian 
Wheezy.

I'll put back SSL support for Pan in Debian unstable once the problematic code 
is relicensed or re-written.
